General Notes: Husband - Archibald Davidson Bonner


He spent all his life in Venango County, PA. About 1849 he obtained a farm of one hundred acres in Irwin Township lying one mile east of the Pittsburgh road, and fourteen miles south of Franklin. But little of the land was cleared when it came into his possession, and it was greatly improved under his ownership, both agriculturally and with good buildings. The barn was built in 1866, the house in 1869, and he kept the property in excellent condition. He took a keen interest in local affairs, especially in the welfare of the Pleasant View M. E. Church, whose house of worship was a mile and a half from his home. He held membership in that congregation from 1846, and was ever ready to give active assistance in its work. [CAB, 672]
He died July 1. [DJTH, 3]

General Notes: Wife - Susanna Hovis


She died Oct 30. [DJTH, 3]
